"Trash, a bunch of rubbish! Mao Zedong is about to arrive in Chongqing, and they even secretly reported that Mao Zedong cannot come to Chongqing! How did they get this information? Military commander Central commander, they are all idiots, Niang Xipi!"
In addition to intelligence errors leading to lack of preparation, there are the following reasons.
Niang Xipi
1. International pattern: The United States, the Soviet Union and Britain divided their interests and urged the Kuomintang and the Communist Party to negotiate peace talks
The United States, the Soviet Union and Britain re-divided the various interests after World War II, and decided to persuade the Kuomintang and the Communist Party to carry out peace talks in Chongqing, not to fight a civil war, and to ensure the safety of the chairman.
In February 1945, the heads of state of the United States, the Soviet Union and the United Kingdom, Roosevelt, Stalin, Churchill, held a meeting in Yalta, the Soviet Union, to discuss post-war European affairs and the war against Japan. The "Yalta Agreement" was signed, in which the terms regarding China were: ensuring the Soviet Union's superior rights and interests in Dalian Port; restoring the Soviet Union's lease of Port Arthur as a Soviet naval base; and jointly managing the China-Eastern Railway and the South-Manchuria Railway. The agreement also meets the requirement to maintain the independence of Outer Mongolia . In addition, they also discussed China's post-war issues and decided to persuade the Kuomintang and the Communist Party not to fight a civil war. The United States also promised to ensure the safety of the chairman, promised to provide an airplane, and asked Ambassador Hurley to greet him in Yan'an.
The Big Three
2. Take the initiative on the domestic battlefield: the harder you fight, the safer you will be
Before leaving for Chongqing, the Chairman specifically told Zhu De, Liu Shaoqi and others that during our negotiations in Chongqing , Chiang Kai-shek will definitely send troops everywhere to provoke, and you will be responsible for all challenges. Provoke, resolutely fight back, destroy as many as you can, and never show mercy. " The harder you fight, the safer I will be!"
Later, Liu and Deng's army, in accordance with the instructions of the Central Committee, launched the Shangdang Campaign , and finally annihilated 35,000 enemy Kuomintang troops. This battle greatly dampened Chiang Kai-shek's arrogance and made him dare not act rashly again. Naturally, he did not dare to think anything wrong about the Chairman.
3. Unite all forces: win support from all parties. During his stay in Chongqing, Chairman
met with more than 100 people from all walks of life. His demeanor, wisdom and open-mindedness were praised by many people and won their support. Chairman
visited leaders of various democratic parties and patriotic figures, such as Soong Ching Ling , Feng Yuxiang , Zhang Lan, Shen Junru, Xianying , etc., and introduced to them the Communist Party's policy of peaceful nation-building, and at the same time elaborated on the Communist Party's political propositions. Afterwards, Zhang Lan said to people: "The one who wins the world must be Mao Runzhi!"

4. Lao Chiang Kai-shek's fake peace talks: to gain time to prepare for war and shirk the charges of civil war
On August 28, 1945, in order to strive for peace, the chairman went to Chongqing for negotiations. The signing of the "Double Ten Agreement" maintained the relationship between the two parties on the surface of peace.
In fact, it is impossible for the Chongqing negotiations to succeed. The purpose of Chiang Kai-shek's initiation of Chongqing negotiations was the following two. First, Chiang Kai-shek's wishful thinking was to take back control of the three northeastern provinces, but ended in failure. After Japan suddenly surrendered, North China , there was no main force of the National Army in the Northeast. The National Army was in the northwest and North China. Chiang Kai-shek hoped to use peace talks to buy time and let the Americans help him transport troops to the surrender area, and then start a civil war. Later, the Northeast was still occupied by us.
Second, take a preemptive attitude and initiate peace talks with the CCP. If they refuse, they can blame the CCP for destroying peace and provoking civil war. He thought that the chairman would not come.But in the end, it was easily solved by the wisdom of the Chairman. The Chairman put up a smoke screen beforehand, saying that he would not go to Chongqing, and sent Zhou Enlai to Chongqing instead of him, which paralyzed Chiang Kai-shek. So Chiang Kai-shek had little preparation. When he saw the Chairman, he was in chaos, and the opening scene appeared:
"Waste , a bunch of rubbish! Mao Zedong is about to arrive in Chongqing, and they secretly reported that Mao Zedong will not come to Chongqing! How did they get this information? The military commanders are all idiots! "
Peace is not something that comes by waiting, nor is it given by others, but is earned through one's own strength!
